accomplished by pressing the switch
downward.The switch will automatically
return to the center point. Alternate

4. Mode Switch (A)

The on/off mode switch allows you to select
from 5 (five) different programmable drive
profiles or actuator mode sets.

Push up the on/off mode select toggle switch to index among the five drive
and actuator modes.The selected mode indicator will flash.

actuators are indicated by the four actuator lights (H).

5. Joystick (E)

The joystick controls the direction and speed of your chair.Turn the chair on
and move the joystick in the direction you want to go.

Moving the joystick from the neutral (center) position disengages the
motor locks, allowing the chair to move.

The chair will move faster the more you move the joystick away from
neutral.

NOTE–

If your speed becomes hard to manage, release the Joystick and the chair will come

to a complete stop.

When you release the joystick it will return to neutral; the chair will slow
to a stop and the motor locks will reengage.

We recommend that you switch the chair off if you stop for any length of
time.This will conserve battery power.

NOTE–

Once the chair stops, switching the chair off will not affect the motor locks.

6. Joystick Boot (F)

Make sure the boot is not torn or cracked (this could allow debris, water or
moisture to enter). If the boot is torn or cracked, replace it as soon as you can.
